  1. This is not uncommon and there are a couple of possibilities.

    The female could be starting to have heat cycles (some breeds can start as early as 2 month of age).  Most female goats (does) will do this when they are in heat.

    This is also a common way for goats (male and female) to show dominance and establish the herd heirarchy.  It could be that she is just higher on the ladder than he is, and she is reminding him of that fact.
